After I disguised myself as a man, I became everyone's white moonlight

Chapter 33 Then I will have no choice but to let you rest here forever

The man who came had good martial arts skills, Chu Xi's first reaction was, and then she looked over, only to see that after the other party saw her face clearly, his eyes were like a lit candle, with a light that could not be ignored.

"I'm Tang Yuhuai. I'll tell you the details later." Tang Yuhuai was wearing a mask on his face. In order to make Chu Xi believe him, he took off the mask while speaking, revealing his real face.

With a pair of narrow and long phoenix eyes and a righteous face, Tang Yuhuai's appearance would be regarded as a typical handsome man in ancient costume in later generations. He is a young general full of high spirits, and his radiance is unconcealed.

The original owner and Tang Yuhuai both came from first-class wealthy clans. Even though they were not the best of friends, they still remembered each other's appearance.

"Why are you here?" Tang Yuhuai quickly guessed a possibility and asked excitedly, "Did His Royal Highness Prince Yan send you here? How many people did you bring with you?"

Seeing how excited he was, Chu Xi almost couldn't bear to break his expectations. After all, she... went up the mountain alone.

"This is not the place to talk, let's go somewhere else." Chu Xi interrupted him as he was about to continue.

The two of them looked at each other tacitly, and left this unsafe place before anyone else came to the house.

They found a secluded place and temporarily exchanged the information they had found out.

Chu Xi started first, "I was ambushed by those mountain bandits on my way back to Yunzhou City, and I took the initiative to follow them up the mountain. Before I went up the mountain, I asked one of His Highness's personal guards to go back and find someone. If nothing goes wrong, they will be able to attack the mountain in two hours at most."

"I just got to the top of Qingshan Peak and was almost discovered by those people who were searching everywhere. I wanted to find a place to hide, but I didn't expect to run into you."

Chu Xi looked outside. No one had come looking for her yet. The Third In Command was distracted by her previous movement and would not be back for the time being.

But if he is smart enough and reacts quickly, once he realizes that the tiger is being lured away from the mountain, he will definitely destroy the medicinal materials and kill people to silence them.

"Listen, we don't have much time now. I have hidden the Ninth Princess in a place that is temporarily safe. I have to take this antidote to rescue Rong Jinfeng and others imprisoned in the dungeon. There is another place that needs people to go."

"Medicinal herbs." Tang Yuhuai was a smart man and understood immediately without Chu Xi explaining it clearly.

Chu Xi liked smart people like Tang Yuhuai. She pointed to the places where she had hidden with the Ninth Princess before and circled the three places she thought were the most suspicious.

Because there were many people guarding these three places, she suspected that it was the boss's idea. He knew that things could not be placed in one place, as they would be easily taken away.

So I deliberately opened several places separately.

"I've seen these three places before when I passed by. There are at least five or six bandits guarding them. They look suspicious. You can start searching these places first."

Tang Yuhuai nodded and was about to leave, but then he suddenly stopped, as if he suddenly remembered something, and turned to ask Chu Xi, "Chu Qibai, is the princess okay? Is she injured?"

Although he felt that the Ninth Prince was acting recklessly, she was after all a royal branch and jade leaf, and the legitimate princess born to the Queen. If something really happened to her, they would have a hard time explaining themselves when they returned to the capital.

"She's fine. I hid her in a relatively safe place. I have no time to spare and it might be dangerous to keep the princess with me, so this is the only option." Chu Xi said without hiding anything.

"That's good. Wait until we have resolved these issues before you go to pick up His Highness." Tang Yuhuai's teasing eyes were suggestive.

Chu Xi, "..." So, Her Royal Highness the Ninth Princess likes Chu Jiang. Could it be that everyone in the capital knows about this?

She nodded slightly with a cold and unapproachable expression. In fact, she had no idea how to answer this question and ran away quickly with the knife in hand.

Tang Yuhuai naturally saw the embarrassment of Chu Jiang's escape, so the corners of his lips unconsciously raised, and he felt that this Prince Chu was becoming more and more interesting.

*

At the foot of Qingfeng Mountain, there were two teams of people. One team was the one hundred people brought by Tang Yuhuai, and the other was the Yunzhou garrison brought by Chu Er.

Chu Er arrived later and hid at another hill near the foot of the mountain. He planned to find someone to go up the mountain to find out the situation and draw a map. Before he got close to the real Qingfeng Mountain, he saw some movement on the Qingfeng Mountain...

It seemed like someone was searching in the woods, and the noise was quite loud. Chu Er saw birds startled and flying away in the woods one after another. This noise... was like someone was searching the mountain.

Chu Er frowned slightly, and couldn't help but feel suspicious. Could it be that the young master was really tied up by these bandits and then escaped? Was he discovered by the bandits after escaping, which led to their search?

Chu Er was not the only one who had such suspicion. Tang Yuhuai's confidant was also anxiously hiding in the dark and observing. Seeing that something was not right, they couldn't help but wonder if something had happened to Tang Yuhuai?

Both groups were ready to make a move, fearing that they would suffer losses.

As for the situation on the mountain, it was indeed somewhat similar to what they were worried about, but not completely similar. Chu Xi deliberately alarmed those people and diverted half of the combat power of the mountain village.

If Chu Xi wanted to sneak into the dungeon without alerting other people, the best way would be to disguise himself as a bandit. But even if he was a bandit, he would need a legitimate reason to enter.

She rolled her eyes and once again set her sights on the doctor who had previously tried to plot against her but failed.

The doctor anxiously looked everywhere for the antidote. After finally finding it, he opened the stopper of the medicine bottle with a slightly trembling hand. Just as he was about to take the pill, a hand suddenly appeared, snatched the pill from his hand, and took away the bottle of antidote.

"..."

When the doctor saw Chu Xi coming back, he looked as if he had seen the King of Hell. His face turned pale and his eyes fell on the antidote, but he didn't dare to make any big movements.

He had seen Chu Xi's martial arts and his intelligence, so naturally he didn't dare to have any ulterior motives.

"Great hero, whatever else you want, I can give it to you."

The doctor's legs went weak. Seeing that Chu Xi was about to throw away the bottle of antidote at any time, he wanted to kneel down and kowtow to her.

"What I want is simple, take me to the dungeon."

"I can't get into that place." The doctor was afraid of death, but he was also afraid of the boss, those bandits who killed people without blinking an eye.

It is very clear what this person's intention is. He wants the antidote to the muscle softening powder in order to save the people in the dungeon. If he takes the initiative to take this man there, the boss will definitely kill him later if he is not dead.

"What a pity. I have no choice but to let you rest here forever." Chu Xi said the cruelest words with a smile on his lips, but the smile did not reach his eyes.

The doctor's legs were completely weak now, and he knelt down, "I...I will find a way. I will definitely take you in."

Chu Xi smiled and said, "I admire people who are smart and sensible the most. I don't like people who are too smart. I don't want to see the previous incident of using poison as an antidote again."

Doctor, "...I promise I won't do that again."

Who is not afraid of death?

He just wants to live.
